    <dd>These properties allow dynamic, time-variant effects and behavior either
        through user intervention or as part of their intrinsic design. The 'cursor'
        property is the most basic of these properties - it specifies the mouse
        pointer representation to be used when a CSS selector is matched. The 'zoom'
        property specifies a magnification level of the enclosed content over its
        usual rendering size.
        <br><br>

        The other two properties are much more complex in their behavior; the 'filter'
        and 'behavior' properties both allow a multitude of effects to be bound to a
        CSS selector. 'Filter' defines a variety of movement and visual effects for
        an element using regular CSS property/value syntax. The property is expandable
        to allow for further filter effects in the future.
        <br><br>

        The 'behavior' property is also a dynamic property, but its "dynamic" power
        lies in its ability to easily reference other dynamic capabilities (like
        scripting languages or multiple CSS rules) via simple CSS syntax. The
        chief benefits of CSS in conjunction with HTML are that it separates rendering
        information from document content, and allows efficient use of style information
        across multiple documents. The 'behavior' property accomplishes the same sort
        of thing - it separates scripting from style information and allows efficient
        script usage across multiple style sheets.
